Marmara University Theology of Faculty Mosque

The Marmara University Faculty of Theology Exercise Mosque, which was opened in 2015, has a capacity of 4,300 communities with two fold increase compared to the old one. The project planned as four floors has two floors of mosque and the other two floors below are parking lot. In addition, there are interiors that are thought to be used in religious and socio-cultural services such as book-cafeteria, conference hall, art gallery, classrooms, teacher rooms, meeting rooms, dining hall and fountain...

Theology Faculty Mosque is designed as our architectural tradition's interpretation of today's vernacular. Being inspired by the rotational movement that takes part in the whole universe from macrocasmos to microcosmos, the mosque is in the pursuit of a new horizon in the mosque architecture by uniting "the part in the whole" and "the whole in the part" notion with the fractal character of the nautilus form and the inspration of millenarian traditional ceiling technic.
